High Ping? Low Frames? Tell us about it here!

Please attempt to respond to the following questions in your responses:

• How had the patch generally affected your performance?

Havnt had a chance to test performance yet, but will get to that.

Ping is roughly the same but im rubber banding and lagging like crazy now. Pritty much unplayable half the time i end up teleported no where near where i was.

My FPS has taken a 5-10 FPS drop with the new patch, especially in the new vision modes. It's borderline unplayable.

And yes, I have the latest AMD Catalyst beta, 13.3.

I can play CS:GO and get 90-100 FPS. I got 30-40 on MWO, and now 20-30. Not acceptable.

HP Pavilion dv7 Laptop
Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1, 64-bit

AMD Radeon HD 7690M XT w/Catalyst 13.3
Low settings in MWO except for textures on high
Located in eastern US with a good connection; ping usually 40-60

Same here. I experienced a huge drop in performance. Hitting any moving target is pretty much impossible with this patch.

[Hylius]

Constant rubberbanding with no ping or framerate difference from the last version. Currently impossible to play.

[Akhael]

Dropped from 35-40 fps before patch to 4-6 on the 2 maps I tried tonight. Game is unplayable :/
I noticed a small drop after the previous patch, but now that's huge...

[JollyRogerCRO]

my fps droped from playable 25-30fps, to 10-15fps slideshow on lowest settings with todays patch, and the game still looks like **** made for consoles, nice going

dou you people know that game should become more optimised with updateing, not less?

I too am rubberbanding and having weapon fire lag like happens with a high ping with only a 40-50 ping. This patch appears to not be very stable at all.

[Krzysztof z Bagien]

About 10 fps drop, even more in new vision modes. When I'm in a fast mech I teleport all the time, in slower mechs occasionally.
Edit: oh, yeah, weapon firing delay is present, up to 2-3 seconds.

7-10 FPS all the time since patch. unplayable! Plz help.

[AdultPuppetShow]

Huge impact to performance. Up until this patch I was getting about 35 - 40 FPS on the more optimized maps,
and maybe 25 FPS on the ones that still have kinks in them.
Note that I play on the lowest settings because I play on an Acer laptop.

Now I'm getting about 10 FPS, even when I just drop into the training ground.

I do in fact have the latest drivers for my PC.

frame drop and rubber banding. its impossible to hit any Light Mechs again. animations of a running Spider is a joke, it just "hovers" most of the time. even heavy and assault mechs "teleport" wildly over the battlefield. impossible to get a sure shot. i could run through heavy ppc fire with my awesome, they couldnt hit me. when melee fighting (range less than 50m) frame rate drops to 5 or lower.

maybe it's only server power lacking as almost everybody now logs on after installing the patch...maybe... but actually I almost don't care anymore...

The same here!

Ping stayed the same, but fps dropped to 5-10 in lowest settings. Really unplayable.

[warp103]

[Panimu]

Rubber banding and lag where there was none before. Pings are unchanged.

[Arete]

Experiencing extreme amounts of packet loss.

[Boompow]

loading screens are taking ages and after a match i am getting stuck when the match ends and all mechs stop and I dont make it to the summary.

[shinigaminus]

FPS/PING is ok, but now game is very laggy, Game has a very very slow reaction and teleportations.
